When the boat first entered the Ghost Gate Cave, there was still some refracted light on the water, but gradually the light disappeared and it became as dark as night.
Guo Saner lit the oil lamp on the boat, illuminating a small area.
"The reason why the Dogwood Boat sails at night is because there is a luminous fish in the river in Guimen Cave. We call it the light fish or the guide fish. The boatman can sail by the light of the light fish. But during the day, the light fish cannot
came out, so there are no dogwood boats."
Mu Run suddenly realized, "So that's the reason."
Guo Saner: "Guangyu looks pretty good too. Your Majesty, please take a look at it if you have the opportunity."
Mu Run nodded, "Can it be eaten?"
"..." Guo San'er said with a smile: "Of course you can eat it. I heard that the meat is delicious and of top quality. However, our boatmen never touch it. If they see poachers, they will stop them."
"Well, if someone shows you the way and then eats someone, won't you get retribution?" Mu Run held a puff and was about to eat it... Suddenly the hull of the boat shook, and she dropped the puff and held on tight.
Shipside.
"Sit tight, Sir. When you enter the bend from here, there is no light fish to guide you. I can only move forward based on experience, and there will be some bumps."
"I got it." Mu Run grasped the side of the boat with both hands, and the puff bag originally placed on her knees also tilted, and the puffs fell into the river one by one...
A dark shadow followed their boat. From time to time, the black shadow surfaced and swallowed the puffs that fell on the river.
Guo Saner had been sailing for many years, and he intuitively felt that something was following his boat, and it was very dangerous. Beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.
Mu Run only felt that the boat was going faster and faster.
Looking back at Guo San'er, he saw that his face was abnormally pale and asked, "What's wrong? You don't look good."
"It's okay, sir, just sit tight," Guo San'er replied.
"Maybe... I can't sit well." Mu Run saw a huge black shadow following their boat behind the boat, "If you have any trouble, come to the door."
Guo San'er quietly glanced back. At this glance, he almost lost his grip on the paddle board, "It's a ghost fish."
"What ghost fish?"
"The Ghost Gate Cave is named after it. Its head looks like a ghost, and it will devour passing ships. But it has not appeared for a hundred years, and everyone thought it was dead."
"It seems that we are very lucky today. We encountered a rare fish that has not been seen in a century. What should we do?" Mu Run asked.
"Leave it to fate." Guo Saner rowed hard.
Mu Run suddenly said "Hey~", "My...puff!"
She finally found that her puffs were scattered in the water. Moreover, the ghost fish seemed to be eating her puffs!
With a thought in her mind, she turned her back to Guo San'er and opened the bag. In fact, she took out a large bag of puffs from the space.
One by one they were thrown into the river.
As expected, this ghost-headed fish followed her puff.
"..."
Guo Saner also noticed her movements, "Are you feeding the ghost fish?"
"If we can avoid being eaten and get out of the cave safely, it doesn't matter if we sacrifice some snacks. How far is it?"
"It used to take an hour to row, but now... less than half an hour." There were ghost fish behind, so how dare you row slowly and leisurely.
"Yeah, brother Guo San'er, come on!" Mu Run sprinkled another handful of puffs and threw them into the water.
The ghost fish ate very happily, wagging its tail from time to time, causing waves in the water, and even helped Guo Saner row the boat.
